Hindlimb unloading alters ligament healing.
We investigated the hypothesis that hindlimb unloading inhibits healing in fibrous connective tissue such as ligament. Male rats were assigned to 3- and 7-wk treatment groups with three subgroups each: sham control, ambulatory healing, and hindlimb-suspended healing. Ambulatory and suspended animals underwent surgical rupture of their medial collateral ligaments, whereas sham surgeries were per...
متن کاملEffects of hindlimb unloading on rat cerebral, splenic, and mesenteric resistance artery morphology.
Hindlimb unloading (HU) of rats induces a cephalic shift in body fluids. We hypothesized that the putative increase in cranial fluid pressure and decrease in peripheral fluid pressure would alter the morphology of resistance arteries from 2-wk HU male Sprague-Dawley rats. To test this hypothesis, the cerebral basilar, mesenteric, and splenic arteries were removed from control (C) and HU animals...
متن کاملEndurance training induces fiber type-specific revascularization in hindlimb skeletal muscles of rats with chronic heart failure
Objective(s): Previous studies showed that skeletal muscle microcirculation was reduced in chronic heart failure. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of endurance training on capillary and arteriolar density of fast and slow twitch muscles in rats with chronic heart failure. Materials and Methods: Four weeks after surgeries (left anterior descending (LAD) artery occlusion), chr...
متن کاملDifferential bone and muscle recovery following hindlimb unloading in skeletally mature male rats.
This study was designed to track the recovery of bone and muscle properties after 28 days of hindlimb unloading (HU) in skeletally mature male rats in order to quantify the degree and timing of the expected mismatch between bone and muscle properties. Outcome variables were in vivo plantarflexor peak isometric torque and proximal tibial volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD). Proximal tibia vBM...
متن کاملEffects of joint immobilization and hindlimb unloading on collagen fibers of soleus muscles in rats
[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to determine whether collagen fibers cause a difference in a contracture resulting from a combination of joint fixation and hindlimb unloading as compared to joint fixation only. [Subjects and Methods] The subjects of this study were 21 female Wistar rats divided into 4 groups as follows: Control Group (CON, n=7); Joint Fixation Group (JF, n=7), Hindlimb ...
